Trump and the Republicans Keep Finding New People to Hate and Persecute

They are determined to burn our country to the ground and create a new, Russian-style oligarchy. Their latest immigration proposal is beyond egregious. I worry what Trump will do next to distract from his crimes and the upcoming accountability.

Republicans are the party of Assault-Danny Deutsch Calls Them Out

On last night’s program Danny Deutsch discussed the ugly truth that Republicans vigorously promote assault. All of their policies support assault on our safety, assault on our healthcare, assault on our environment, assault in our elections, assault in our education, assault on our wages, assault on families and children. Everything they support is an assault.

They are the party of death and destruction. If we don’t stand up against them, we are with them.

Jeffrey Epstein has Committed Suicide-Was He Helped?

No doubt a large number of wealthy and powerful men are breathing a huge sigh of relief.

This is Tyranny Disguised as Freedom

The current, popular interpretation of the Second Amendment is nothing less than tyranny that has been cleverly disguised as freedom for political and financial gain.

It is tyranny when we have a mass shooting in this country every single day; the only country in the entire world where this happens.

It is tyranny when our school children are cruelly butchered in their classrooms and are traumatized while having to perform active shooter drills across this land.

It is tyranny when Americans practicing their religion are slaughtered in their houses of worship.

It is tyranny when our political leaders use this bloodbath to further their political aims and do nothing to stop the daily carnage.

This is war.

This is a war being waged against the American people and there is a daily body count to prove it.

It is Abundantly Clear, Trump Represents Everything Today's Republican Party Stands For

Intelligent Americans understand that Trump is a totally corrupt and disgusting sorry excuse for a man. Yet, no one in the entire Republican party has the slightest shred of integrity or decency to call him out, ever. Trump shows the world, every day and the Republican Party show the world every day just exactly how far into the gutter they are willing to go in order to enrich themselves and stay in power.

I Think it's Time to Focus Much More Attention on the Millions of Non-Voters

We can find ways to show them that they, too, have skin in the game. As for Trump voters, they can rot.

Justice Stevens' Former Supreme Court Clerk, Cliff Sloan, Was on Rachel Tonight

Sloan shared Justice Stevens strong belief in and commitment to the rule of law. Sloan also shared Stevens deep concerns that it is under serious attack and we should not be discouraged and fight every day to protect it.

Trump's Attacks Against "The Squad" are an Effective Distraction From his Ties to Epstein

Trump is a sexual predator and Jeffrey Epstein has been his friend for one for many years. (Epstein had over a dozen phone numbers for Trump in his possession-quite a few for someone he "barely knew&quot . To distract from his obvious sexual predation from hanging out with his monster bro, Trump brought on his ultra-racist attacks against the four Democratic congresswomen. Trump has already confessed on the "Access Hollywood" tape one of his preferred methods for sexually assaulting women. He is essentially yelling "fire" in a crowded theater to redirect everyone's attention. This in no way discounts or minimized the awfulness of his racist attacks. However, we can't lose sight of another hideous Trump debacle.

Seriously, How Can Bernie Claim to Represent the Democratic Party When He Refuses to Join It?

That seems illogical and I really don’t understand it.

Aww, Trump's Strip Club, Nude Dancer Golf Event to Benefit a "Children's Charity" Was Cancelled

Apparently, the stripper auction was also cancelled. Thank you GOP for bestowing our country with this classy president who truly represents your “family values” for all the world to see.
